Clash Verge Rev is a desktop GUI for the Mihomo rule-based proxy core, letting you import subscription profiles, switch nodes, edit rules visually, and route traffic through system proxy or TUN mode.
Clash Verge Rev is a graphical client for the Mihomo proxy core, the engine that reads YAML profiles and routes each connection according to rules. The application wraps that core in a desktop interface: you import a profile from a link or file, pick which proxy group to use, and turn on either system proxy or TUN mode to capture traffic. Live connection lists, logs, and rule views sit alongside the settings, so troubleshooting does not require opening a terminal. Because profiles can be refreshed on a schedule, keeping a subscription current is a background task rather than a manual chore.
Choosing a client mostly comes down to how much control you want over the underlying configuration. Clash Verge Rev edits YAML profiles and exposes the core's own rule engine, which suits people who already have profiles from a provider and want to see what those rules do. Enhancement profiles add another layer: a Merge profile overrides selected keys, and a Script profile can transform the configuration programmatically before it loads. Anyone building a configuration from scratch instead of consuming one might prefer a different engine entirely, such as sing-box, which is configured directly rather than through provider profiles.
The benefit of Clash Verge Rev is that it hides the plumbing without removing it. Importing a subscription, refreshing it on a timer, and choosing a node happen from the interface, while the underlying YAML stays editable for anyone who needs to inspect or extend it. Two capture methods cover different needs: system proxy is quick and reversible, while TUN mode takes over routing at the network layer so applications that ignore proxy settings are still covered. The visual proxy and rule editors make it practical to understand why a particular domain took a particular path, which is the question that usually sends people back to documentation. WebDAV backup keeps profiles and settings recoverable across machines, custom themes and CSS injection handle the cosmetic side, and the bundled core means there is nothing to install separately before the first connection.
Key capabilities and highlights.
The rule-based Mihomo core ships with the application, so a profile can be loaded and used without installing a separate engine first. A switchable alternative core is available for people who want to test newer behaviour before it reaches the default build.
Import profiles into Clash Verge Rev from a link or a local file, set them to refresh on a schedule, and switch between them when you change networks or providers. Each profile keeps its own rules, which makes testing a new subscription independent of your everyday setup.
Enhancement profiles sit on top of a base profile and modify it before the core reads it. A Merge profile overrides specific keys, while a Script profile can compute values, which keeps provider updates from erasing your local customisations.
Turn on the system proxy for a fast, easily reversed change that most browsers and desktop applications respect. Switch to TUN mode when programs ignore proxy settings or when you need routing to work at the network layer rather than per application.
Proxy groups and routing rules in Clash Verge Rev can be edited through the interface instead of hand-written YAML, with syntax hints when you do open the config. That lowers the cost of answering questions such as why one application uses a different exit node.
A connection table in Clash Verge Rev shows active sessions with their matched rule and chosen proxy, and the log view records what the core is doing. Together they turn a vague complaint about slow or blocked access into a specific, checkable answer.
Export profiles and application settings to a WebDAV location and pull them back on another machine, which removes the chore of rebuilding a configuration by hand. It also gives you a recovery point before experimenting with rules.
Theme colours, tray and proxy group icons, and CSS injection let the client match your desktop rather than the other way around. Language options and light or dark modes cover the rest, which matters for something that stays running all day.

Common questions about Clash Verge Rev.
It is a desktop application that provides a graphical interface for the Mihomo rule-based proxy core. You import a profile, choose how traffic is captured, and then select proxy groups or nodes from the same window, with connection and log views for checking what happened.
No. The core is bundled with Clash Verge Rev, so an imported profile works without any additional installation. The interface also offers a switch to an alternative core build for users who want to test newer behaviour before it becomes the default.
System proxy changes the operating system's proxy settings, which is quick and easy to undo but is ignored by applications that do not honour those settings. TUN mode in Clash Verge Rev creates a virtual network interface and routes traffic at a lower level, so programs that bypass proxies are covered as well.
Import the profile into Clash Verge Rev from its subscription link and enable scheduled updates. The application then refreshes the profile in the background at the interval you choose, so node lists and rules stay current without you opening the interface and updating them by hand.
They are enhancement profiles that modify a base profile before the core loads it. Merge overrides selected keys from the base file, while Script can compute or transform values. Keeping local changes in an enhancement profile means a subscription update will not wipe them out.
Yes. WebDAV backup exports profiles and settings to a remote location and restores them elsewhere, which is faster than copying files by hand and gives you a snapshot to return to if an experiment goes wrong.
No. Profiles and logs stay on the device, and the project documents the network connections the application itself makes in its privacy policy, so you can check exactly what is requested and when.
Anything the bundled core supports, which covers the commercial and self-hosted options typically used by subscription providers, including newer transports. Because the profile defines the proxies, compatibility depends on the core rather than on the interface.

v2rayN is a desktop GUI that drives Xray, sing-box, and other proxy cores, letting you import subscriptions, test server latency, choose routing rules, and enable system proxy or TUN mode from one window.
sing-box is a configurable proxy platform that runs as a single binary, accepting traffic through inbounds, matching it against routing rules, and forwarding it through outbounds that can speak dozens of protocols.
